Winter Whites
White (including all forms of off-whites) is not a colour only for spring and summer. It’s a great winter colour too, especially for knits. Jacket from Basile, Uniqlo polo, ps and pants from Berg & Berg and Tricker’s shoes. Click on the headline for more pics.

Diplomatic Ties 373: Dolcepunta
Pictures taken a few months ago when autumn had just arrived. Found an old Volvo Amazon in excellent condition that we had to photograph. Jacket from Magee, Zegna Couture shirt, tie from Dolcepunta, Drake’s ps, Massimo Dutti pants and Alden shoes. Click on the headline for more pics.

Diplomatic Ties 372: Cifonelli
A recent visit to Paris gave me the first chance to see the relatively new RTW store for Cifonelli at Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. Nice store, impressive to see that they managed to hold on to many of the details that their bespoke services are famous for. I didn’t have time for anything more ambitious, but at least got this shirt and tie. Chose to wear it with a blue suit. You often see the combination of a grey suit with a navy tie, but not often the other way around. Suit from Richard James, shirt and tie from Cifonelli,

Diplomatic Ties 371: Borrelli
DBs are usually not my style, but this Fallan & Harvey is just a great suit. Suit from Fallan & Harvey, MTM shirt from Marchesan, Borrelli tie, Berg & Berg ps, cufflinks from Kenzo and Crockett & Jones shoes. Click on the headline for more pics.
